Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression, prognostic value and potential mechanism for the role of SNHG4 in gastric cancer.Methods:The expression of SNHG4 in gastric cancer was analyzed by UALCAN database. The relationship between SNHG4 and prognosis of gastric cancer was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier Plotter. SNHG4-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network was constructed by StarBase, Targetscan, microT-CDS and Cytoscape. The target genes were analysis GO and KEGG pathway enrichment by DAVID database.Results:The expression of SNHG4 in gastric cancer was significantly higher than that in normal tissues ( P=8.882E-16) . The overall survival time of patients with high SNHG4 expression was lower than that of patients with low expression ( P=8.900E-05) . Through the construction of RNA regulatory network, we found that hsa-let-7a-5p ( P=1.02E-03) , hsa-miR-152-3p ( P=4.51E-06) , hsa-miR-204-5p ( P=6.68E-04) and hsa-miR-363-3p ( P=8.06E-03) could be used as the binding sites of SNHG4 in gastric cancer, and these four miRNAs further regulated 250 downstream target genes. Through GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of the target genes, we found that these target genes played roles in the biological process of protein phosphorylation regulation, transcription negative regulation, RNA polymerase II promoter transcription, and participated in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer by blocking or activating Wnt and other signal pathways. Conclusions:SNHG4 can be used as a potential tumor marker for gastric cancer to judge the prognosis of gastric cancer. By constructing a SNHG4-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network, the pathogenesis of gastric cancer can be studied at the molecular level. This provides a clear direction for experimental and clinical research.
